Dear Eric:

It made me smile reading your recent post: not because of reading that you’ve been suffering, but because I can see/ feel your pure heart: you are a good, loving young person, and it is a great shame that, like you wrote, you’ve been suffering for so long and rarely felt loved. You deserve to be loved, but when living so long without feeling loved, it is difficult to accept love, even when it’s there (Gem’s love). It is difficult to believe that it’s really there and more so, that it’s going to stay! This was my experience too, so I think that I understand. It is Mon 7 pm here, Tues 11 am your time, I believe. Soon to be good night for me.
